Soap Header in Xcelsius: How to pass Credentials

Using Xcelcius 2008 (Excelcius Engage) We are making a dashboard application which uses the Web service connection to call SOAP based web services.
Is there a way to Authenticate the Web Services passing User ID pwd from within one of the excel cells?
The idea is to suppress the authentication and pass the credentials from within the excel cell or any other way which doesn't require user to log in to the Web services while running the Dashboards?
Also I found out an option in Web Service Connection -> Advanced Tab to add a soap header which can include credentials. Is there a format in which I need to create this soap header? Any sample Soap Header would be of great help.

I'd like to know how to do this also, seems silly to have the option to use web services but give no way of passing Basic Authentication credentials.
Cheers
Craig

How to pass credentials to OSB business service at runtime?

Hi,
I have a proxy service which calls a Business service through routing action. I have a scenario where I have to pass SOAP header with username token policy (which has username and password) while routing to the business service in the proxy service. As of now I have hardcoded the SOAP header in the routing action with Replace activity. Issue is the username and password are specific to the environment. Is there a way to pass these credentials through customization files as environment specific properties at runtime? or is there any other method to pass these credentials dynamically using DVM? Please let me know.
Aditya

And in fact one shouldn't. Passwords in a customization files would be an extremely insecure thing, having in mind that customization files are stored in VCS, passed around in email and generally not considered sensitive data.
Operations team is responsible for maintaining the domain, including the security artifacts. They would update SSL certs, users, groups -- and service accounts too.

How to add security credentials to SOAP header for EBS Web Service call..

All,
I am trying to invoke a webservice that I successfully exposed as a WSDL Web Service using EBS Integrated SOA Gateway. I am using OBIEE 11g Action Framework which uses WebLogic.
Here are the steps I completed:
- I exposed a WSDL web service in EBS R12 via Integrated SOA Gateway
- I granted the access to this service in EBS R12 to user SYSADMIN
- I used OBIEE 11g to make a Action to call the Web service (using Action Framework) by searching for the WSDL
- When I try to execute the action: I get the error:
Action could not be invoked.
ServiceExecutionFailure :
Error invoking web service HR_PHONE_API_Service at endpoint http://ip-10-87-33-3.ec2.internal:8000/webservices/SOAProvider/plsql/hr_phone_api/ Missing <wsse:Security> in SOAP Header
PROBLEM: I am unsure how to add the credentials for SYSADMIN user and password to add the SOAP username/pwd to the outgoing call. Anyone on this forum know how to set up the SOAP to call with the correct credentials? I have been looking at the documentation but it is not clearly explained.

Dear Heiko,
did you solve this problem?
We are facing the same problem. Every parameter that requries "cmd" does not work. I guess we don´t use this paramter the right way.

How do pass the UserID and Password in the SOAP header for web services

I am encountering issues trying to pass the userid and password in the SOAP header when consuming a 3rd party web service. Rostewitz posted something similiar but I don't know how to type iv_xml. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
jpina

It helps to post a link to a thread when you refer to it. If you are trying to implement that solution though, you can look at the parameter of the corresponding method being called. The parameter has type 'SIMPLE' which means that it is compatible with all of the predefined elementary ABAP types. In this case, you should use 'STRING'.

Passing SOAP header while invoking a web service partner link from BPEL

I followed the steps of adding bpelx.inputheadervariable. Which is supposed to add the soad header. But after running the BPEL process if I see the message in the console, I don't see the SOAP header. Is there any way to see how the SOAP header is passed or did I set it incorrectly?

Hi,
Try using obtunnel with your bepl console.
Alternatively, if your server is on unix/ linux, try tcpdump to capture packets to a particular server and then open the file in wireshark to analyse the contents.
Wish SOA suite would allow us to view this by default!

How to pass header Variables along with body

Hi,
Here I am invoking siebel web service which is wsdl(SOAP) based web service. I tested it through sopaUI and it is working fine for me as I am getting proper response. here is the input payload structure.
Note: it is running on HTTPS, so SSL has been applied to this site.
it is loading as http not https. For every operation when we make a request, we are changing the link to https and submitting it. Then it is working for us.
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ns="http://www.xxxxxx.com/2005/">
   <soapenv:Header>
      <ns:AuthorizationToken>
         <ns:Token>userName;Password</ns:Token>
      </ns:AuthorizationToken>
   </soapenv:Header>
   <soapenv:Body>
      <ns:WEBIndividualGet>
         <ns:key>{6D803C43-3917-4C99-91F3-003EB9E16E1F}</ns:key>
      </ns:WEBIndividualGet>
   </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
Now I created the bpel projects like this.
Step 1:- in the xsd, I created two elements types
<xsd:element name="UsernameToken" type="xsd:string"/>
    <xsd:element name="PasswordText" type="xsd:string"/>
Step 2:- Then I created the WSDL in respect to above elements

<wsdl:message name="WEBAutTokenOut">
<wsdl:part name="userName" element="netObj:UsernameToken"/>
<wsdl:part name="passWord" element="netObj:PasswordText"/>
</wsdl:message>
<wsdl:portType name="portTypeName">
<wsdl:operation name="operationName">
<soap:operation soapAction="sopaAction">
</soap:operation>
   <wsdl:input message="netSer:SvcRequestMessage">
    <soap:header message="netSer:WEBGetAutToken" part="userName" use="literal"/>
    <soap:header message="netSer:WEBGetAutToken" part="passWord" use="literal"/>
   </wsdl:input>
   <wsdl:output message="netSer:SvcResponseMessage">
    <soap:header message="netSer:WEBAutTokenOut" part="userName" use="literal"/>
    <soap:header message="netSer:WEBAutTokenOut" part="passWord" use="literal"/>
   </wsdl:output>
</wsdl:operation>
</wsdl:portType>
Step 3:- and My Bpel looks like

<variable name="customHeaderVar" messageType="netSer:WEBGetAutToken"/>
    <variable name="customOutputHeaderVar" messageType="netSer:WEBAutTokenOut"/>
<sequence name="main">
<receive name="receiveInput" partnerLink="xxxxxxx"
             portType="netSer:xxxxxxxxxxx" operation="xxxxxx"
             variable="inputVariable" createInstance="yes"
            bpelx:headerVariable="customHeaderVar"/>
<assign name="AssignHeaderVariables">
      <copy>
        <from expression='"username"'/>
        <to variable="customHeaderVar" part="userName"
            query="/ns2:UsernameToken"/>
      </copy>
      <copy>
        <from expression='"soa1234"'/>
        <to variable="customHeaderVar" part="passWord"
            query="/ns2:PasswordText"/>
      </copy>
    </assign>
<invoke name="Invoke" inputVariable="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
            outputVariable="Invoke_OutputVar"
            partnerLink="xxxxxxxxxxx" portType="ns1:XMLSoap"
            operation="WEBGet" bpelx:invokeAsDetail="no"
           bpelx:inputHeaderVariable="customHeaderVar">
            bpelx:outputHeaderVariables="customOutputHeaderVar"/>
Note: When I am hitting siebel web service it is giving some out put, The output it self has header variable. so that is reason am added outputHeaderVariables.
< Here we have Transformation Activity >
<reply name="replyOutput" partnerLink="xxxxxx"
           portType="netSer:xxxxxxx" operation="WEBGet"
           variable="outputVariable"
           bpelx:inputHeaderVariable="customOutputHeaderVar"/>
That's about my project. But when test this service Am getting error. below is the error details.

Post user and pass to SOAP Header message in ABAP Proxy

Hi Folks!
I'm trying to post user and pass to SOAP Header on an ABAP proxy. I've already read the thread [Consume web service in ABAP proxy with SOAP header|Re: Consume web service in ABAP proxy with SOAP header; and I see that is possible to manipulate SOAP Header but I cannot understand how I work with function module SDIXML_XML_TO_DOM.
Do I need pass to parameter xml a complete SOAP Envelope? If it is right how can I get the complete xml message to pass to this parameter? I think I don't need the build the xml strucuture as I did on WebAS 6.40, isn't it?
Thanks in advanced.

Hi Rafael,
I would be interested in the solution... could you please post it into forum.
Thanks and best regards

How to add a custom element to a SOAP Header in c#

I am new to SOAP and web-services, and not an expert on c# either so sorry if I have made an infuriatingly simple error.
I am calling several web-services and I now need to add an element called *pcimask* to the SoapHeader in order to get a response that is PCI Compliant.
The web-services/WSDL don't expose this property so I guess I need to add it at runtime.
My application creates SOAP messages like the below: (the Soap Request and Response are output into a text file by a SOAP Logging class)
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<soap:Header>
<AutHeader xmlns="http://edb.com/ws/WSCommon_v21">
<SourceApplication>myApp</SourceApplication>
<DestinationApplication>theirApp</DestinationApplication>
<Function>CardCreate</Function>
<Version>3.0.0</Version>
<ClientContext>
<userid>myID</userid>
<credentials>SecureToken</credentials>
<channel>NBA</channel>
<orgid>123456</orgid>
<orgunit>654321</orgunit>
<customerid />
<locale xsi:nil="true" />
<ip>123.456.789.012</ip>
</ClientContext>
</AutHeader>
</soap:Header>
As I understand it, I need to add an element `pcimask="true` to the
<ClientContext element, and it must be after the <ip>
However the wsdl doesn't expose this as a property.
So I have looked at the below resources:
Bytes.com - how-add-soap-header-soap-message
Stackoverflow: (18980689) adding-custom-soapheader-in-c-sharp-for-a-web-service-call
Stackoverflow: (4035423) add-child-elements-to-custom-soap-header-in-spring-ws
and I came up with a little class inside my `common.cs` as below:
using System.Web.Services.Protocols;
using System.Xml.Serialization;
namespace EvryCardManagement
[XmlRoot(Namespace = "http://edb.com/ws/WSCommon_v21")]
[SoapHeader("EDBHeaderType", Direction = SoapHeaderDirection.In)]
public class CardCreateEx : SoapHeader
public string Value;
public CardCreateEx pcimask;
public static class Common
public static bool closeMe { get; set; }
public static int iMQRowID;
public static string impNme;
public static string impPwd;
and I wanted to try and use it in my code that creates the SoapHeader as below:
private EDBHeaderType wsSoapHeader()
EDBHeaderType wsSoapHeader = new EDBHeaderType();
/* ClientContext */
ClientContextType clientContext = new ClientContextType();
clientContext.userid = edb_service[0].userid;
clientContext.credentials = Common.SOToken;
//clientContext.pc
clientContext.orgid = edb_service[0].orgid;
clientContext.orgunit = edb_service[0].orgunit;
clientContext.customerid = "";
clientContext.channel = edb_service[0].channel;
clientContext.ip = edb_service[0].ip;
/* PCI MASK added to ClientContext in header; P-02925; Jan 2015 */
CardCreateEx cardCreateExt = new CardCreateEx(); // P-02925; Jan 2015
cardCreateExt.Value = "true";
/* EDBHeader */
wsSoapHeader.SourceApplication = edb_service[0].SourceApplication;
wsSoapHeader.DestinationApplication = edb_service[0].DestinationApplication;
wsSoapHeader.Function = edb_service[0].Function;
wsSoapHeader.Version = edb_service[0].Version; // P-02925; Oct-Nov 2014
wsSoapHeader.ClientContext = clientContext;
return wsSoapHeader;
but I get a build error:
Attribute 'SoapHeader' is not valid on this declaration type. It is only valid on 'method' declarations.
so what is the correct way to do this?

Hi,
>>Attribute 'SoapHeader' is not valid on this declaration type. It is only valid on 'method' declarations.
Base on this situation, just as the error message says, the 'SoapHeader' attribute can only use on method, such as:
[SoapHeader("myHeader", rection=SoapHeaderDirection.InOut)]
//Receive any SOAP headers other than MyHeader.
[SoapHeader("unknownHeaders",Required=false)]
public string MyWebMethod() {
return "Hello";

How to use XHeaderName1 in SOAP header

I have a scenario in which im passing the target URL of a webservice dynamically in my mapping udf.
I have to pass the URL to the TServerLocation parameter in SOAP header. But the error i get is that the URL is too long for TServerLocation. So i have to split it and send it using XHeaderName1,XHeaderName2 and XHeaderName3.
Can anyone tell me how to do this.
i saw this blog which gives me some idea but still my scenario is not working
/people/william.li/blog/2006/04/18/dynamic-configuration-of-some-communication-channel-parameters-using-message-mapping
please Help

Hi Sivasakthi Danasekaran,
URL is an environment variable I think it will take 256 charecters only. You need to split it compulsorly.
Reward points if needful.

What version of PowerBuilder?
PB.Net or Classic?
Are you using the SOAP or .Net Engine (if using Classic)?
What kind of header?
There is limited support for passing custom headers in the .Net engine in Classic. The header would need to be defined in the WSDL for the service.
Anything beyond that (e.g., WS-Security) would need to be handled in a WCF client in PB.Net.

How to set the SOAP Header while publishing to Queue in the mediator

Hi,
I am trying to publish the message to a JMS AQ, from the Mediator service in the 11g Soa Suite. I want to add some properties as SOAP Header to the message and send it to the JMS AQ. I have seen the mediator process calling BPEL process, passing the SOAP Header values. In the BPEL process, we have the section <soap:binding> inside that I can give the <soap:header>and set the values.
Could any one tell me how to do this in Mediator service which is calling the JMS AQ using adapter?
Thanks,

The solution in this thread is for VS .NET as this is the forum for CR in .NET.
